Yes. He delivered about 2 inspiring weeks (when sox needed a jolt) but that was all she wrote, no more gas in the can. Over-rated, overpaid, ex-Boston, but a nice guy and even got a shout out from Obama, who thanked Boston pubicly for the "gift". Something tells me White Sox will actually find needle in haystack for 3rd base, will find a guy with Crede hands, Melton bat, and Ventura clutch. Just a hunch.

Thanks for the jump start burst of energy for the first month or so before you reverted to the mean for the rest of the year, Youk. I don't think you were ever part of the long term plan, but you gave us hope.

And who else but the Yankees would spend $12M on a 3 month lease / insurance policy?
